| CHICAGO, ILL, June 2T.-TradinG in thu
wheat pit to day was almost as quiet as or
Sa urday. Although there was moderate in
quiry for cash wheat the feeling was weaker
and prices were lower, though prices were held
steady at the established decline. The rec ipis
were small and the shipments are large, Caus.
ing a rapid reduction in stock in store. The
visible supply statement showed decrease OF
> 591 0Q0 bushels, and I'll more rapid decTease
is looked for in the immediate future
Nlillers In the interior whose stocks had be-
come very low and who did not feel disposed
10 buy when wheat was at much higher figures
have bought quite freely recently and effects
of this Will be made visible in the supply OF
wheat as well as that just passed. July opened
i6G&c lower, 694 G69Ec, declined 10 69G69Hc,
and after announcement of decrease Of visible
supply reacted, closing at 697sC. Trading
| in corn was also light again to-day,
| the market ruling quiet during the most
of the day, though towards the close there
was more doing, Cue chiefly to reports of dry
weather. Visible supply showed decrease of
9l5,000: July opened at 355sc, sold down to
35%G3jSc, and closed at 362EG361l, the best
figures of the day, Speculation trading was
moderately active IN provisions, and operators
watched the market closely, fearing that the
report of fire OF the stock yards yesterday
might exert sudden inflence on the market.
